Election campaign leads to Mitchell Freeway noise wall promise

A WALL to reduce noise and light from freeway traffic could benefit Kingsley residents if the State Government is re-elected this weekend.

It has pledged to contribute $1.5 million to construct an amenity wall along the Mitchell Freeway southbound off-ramp to Hepburn Avenue.

“The relatively high volume and visibility of traffic using this particular off-ramp, coupled with the proximity of residential properties to the Greenwood station carpark, means limiting vehicle noise and light are a key priority,” Transport Minister Bill Marmion said.
